X-Men 2 getting under way

Rate

When a movie brings in $54.5 million dollars in just its first week of release you know there will be a sequel. The problem though will be to find a good enemy for the friendly mutants.
Ian McKellen is bound by his contract to return as Magneto "under certain conditions." The Sentinels, those mutant-seeking killer robots created by the U.S. government to work as peacekeepers between humanity and the mutants, are currently favorites for the bad guy role.
Another question is what kind of side story will begin since now Wolverine has discovered much about his mysterious origins. Maybe the Professor will discover a lost love or storm will fall for a hurricane, the possibilities are endless.
Whatever happens, the movie has been given a summer 2002 scheduled release.

I think the beast should be in there, cause he is my favourite, Gambit and Jubilee should be as well, and rouge should be a bit older than the first one cause she was too young....... but she was really hot!!!!! So was Jean Gray.... So was Storm..... jeez, even Mystique was sexy, All the friggin chicks were hot!!!!!What's your opinion?

I definitely think Beast, Gambit, and Jubilee should be in the sequel but i also think Iceman (Bobby in first film) and Angel (X-Men comic #1) should show up too... not to mention i just can't wait to see it!!!

I think that this movie would be agreatmovie because i like action movies andvisual effect (wich as i heard are great)and i ashure you that this movie worth it, if you don't belive me wath its trailer.

i hope that the next movie will be better then the first-the first was a good movie for the ppl who already know about the x-men and like them-what they need to do is create a movie that will help ppl like them, not just entertain current fans

I loved X-men, and expected X-men 2 long before their 50mil+ grossing.I'd just like to see a little more great action, after all, the X-men have used their compined powers in extremely creative ways in the comics, but thaere was scarce little teamwork in the Feature Film.

I think this movie was great but to improve in the next one they need to expand the number of mutants in the movie, because there was only like 10 mutants inlcuding bad guys. The next movie should include like Gambit, Nightcrawler, Juggernaut, The Blob,Beast, Apocalypse, Colossus,and guys like those. All in all though it was a great movie, I would of just like to see some more X-men and bad guys.

Xmen was just a good all around movie everyone looks at it with such horrible biased if you look at just the movie it was a good movie from start to end no fakieness and good acting except storm but pat stuart was incredible and so was ian mckellan

Overall, the X-Men movie was good. The problem is that it was too short and that it had too little mutants. It left a lot of people confused and empty. Hope that the second would be better than the first - more mutants and longer storyline.

I thought the story was going to be a wicked one from the opening scenes but it ended up being short and the plot was totally ****!. It was still a good movie and id probably watch it again (on video) just to see what little action there was again. Hope #2 includes MORE mutants! oh .. and **** YOU ALL!!!!!!! hi mom.

Other than the fact that the movie did not have Gambit, it was great. I don't know why they are confused about their next villain. Mr. Sinister, Apocolypse, Sentinels, Juggernaut, etc. etc. Anyone of these villains would be great. I just hope it is longer next time and they keep the same actors for the X-Men.

APOCALYPSEHe should definitely be the next baddy. As I live in the UK and it isn't out here yet, I was suprised to learn from you guys he isn't in the movie! Come on! The Age Of Apocalypse comic book series really underlined what an ace nasty apocalypse is.

I believe the X-men needed more muscle in the first movie. Colossus. He would wipe the floor with all three of Magneto's underlings and the rest of the X-men could concentrate on Magneto himself. In my opinion Colossus rules.

xmen the movie was good except for the fact that they didnt include enuf action sequences. and i dont understand why they decided to exclude 3 of the xmen (gambit, jubilee, beast) from the movie. they should have also included a few more mutant villains becuz i would like to see how they use their mutant powers with the special effects that are available in movies today

only two of the really good characters were missing. beast and juggernaut. they gotta get someone friggin huge to play juggernaut if they're gonna bring juggernaut on though and they better do a good job on beasts costume or he could look really screwed

Personally I'm a huge fan of X-men and I understand that the director could not cope with so many mutants in the movie, so I'd think it'd be phat if they made and X-Men movie on the old X-Men, like back in the day when Prof X was still in an old skool weelchair, beast didn't have blue hair, ArchAngle was part of the cru, Morph, and all that ****...yo man, the old X-Men was tight! Peace...MSC...One love!

The movie needs to be longer. They should add Gambit and Beast, and make a new villian like Juggernaut, or Mr. Sinister (who kicks ***!) or Apocalypse. They should have replaced Toad in movie because no one has heard of him and replace him with someone like Pyro. Plus, Toad really sucked in the movie.

For the people who think Colossus should be part of the X-Men should think again because he becomes a villian. Here are a list of some of the mutants they could have in the next movie: Psylocke, Bishop, Acrhangel, Nighcrawler, Mr. Sinister, Deadpool, Cyber, Apocalypse, Omega Red, Sauron, or a human like Graydon Creed. Who I really think would be cool to have would be CABLE! He is an awesome mutant. Or another thought would be to have a movie about the X-Force or X-Factor.

good call metallikiller, everyone i talk about is ******* about gambit, well i say nuts to gambit, gambit was a *****, i wanna see some big ape dude walkin on the ceilings! and yeah, appocolipse is so the best enemy the x-men could fight.. of course for movie making purposes the sentenials will certainly make the project easier production wise, as they can just be fillers, although it would be so way cooler to have like a mondo mutant battle scene with just about every mutant from the series..

Adding maybe a couple more mutants and that is it. I would like to see the present characters developed not cluttered up by too many mutants. Juggernaut works as a villain and Gambit as a hero. Colossus doesn't work mostly because Magneto could nullify him so easily.

The reason I think that Colossus should be in there is becouse strength is useful in a lot of situations, and as a Magnetop counter, well look at our boy with adamantium skeleton, anyway human blood got enough metal in it for magneto to control normal humans. Let me know if I'm right.

Its obvious the direction they're going. Mysique will infiltrate the government as the senator and release Magneto. Whether they decide to use sentinels, or hold them off till the third, I can't say, but you can bet the side-story will be the Wolverine/Sabertooth/Omega Red storyline. Maybe that'll be the MAIN story, but I doubt it, since they'll play up Ian McKellen as one of the driving "stars." (Though you can be assured Hugh Jackman's name'll be on the poster this time.) In any event, they need to do something bigger, better, and badder -- and I can almost guarentee Omega Red will be just that.

By the way, Jubilee WAS in the movie. As was Iceman ("Bobby",) the Human Flame, Shadowcat (girl running through the wall) and I'm told others as well, but I don't know if I agree. Those are the ones I saw. Jubillee even had her yellow coat on and hers was the only character name mentioned in the credits.

For all the X-men illeterate, Shadwocast was NOT in the movie, first of all she is black and walking through walls and any other object for that matter is NOT her power! The girl that walked throught the wall was Kitty pride! don't you ppl know anything? Did you know? there are 3245 X's in the movie...or at least thats how many we counted give or take a few...Gambit accually was in the movie. watch it again look in the corner of the class room:)

And who ever the heck "i know stuff is", rogue has "discoverd all of her powers" if you ever read the early books, then you would know that she got her super strength and flying abilities because she held onto another mutant (I can't remember her name) for so long that she absorbed her powers permanatly and left no mercy *peace out*

plus, gambit was a loser with those wussy exploding things. if you want to have a cool hero added, just think, archangel...archangel...archangeljust think of the possibilities, archangel gets ****** off when apocalypse says he created him, cool...maybe get stryfe in there, hell! do the whole executioners series!

Yes, Evil death you are correct i am sorry and apologize for my previous comment. I was recently corrected and called a "duface" by my all knowing x-men fan sister-quite embarrasing if u ask me-Kitty pride is apparantly her real name and shadow cat is her mutant name. I might sound stupid to some o' ya'll, but I had been ununderstanding and thought that kitty pride was her mutant name, and I am sorry if i insulted you X-man. looks like im the only moron here, ecept for "i know stuff..." and on that I would like to expand on thoughts, the mutant Rogue held on to was Ms. Marvel
